MEP Nikki Sinclaire said she made the decision to undergo surgery over 20 years ago because if she hadn't she 'would have led a lonely, neurotic life, forever out of place'.
The politician was a member of Ukip, as party secretary, until a falling out with leader Nigel Farage led to her resignation.
She has since founded a new party, the single-issue We Demand A Referendum, campaigning for the British public to have the right to decide on EU membership.
In a candid interview with The Sun, Ms Sinclaire revealed how she first realised she should have been female at the age of three.
'It sounds weird, but I knew something was wrong even then — I've always felt I was in the wrong body. I remember dressing up as a girl on my first day of school. It then started to happen every day. The other kids knew I was different,' she said.
